Hi, i am using your slide show function in our company’s website. Your newest log said that you added a function to indicate the buttons when they are clickable. However, i want the digit buttons are able to be clicked anytime. At this moment, If i clicked “2″, i have to wait for the slide to change and then i can click the other digits. Can you let me know how i can disable this function. I am sorry about this because i am a newer to the JQ. Thank you

This thing’s really hot but it just won’t work in my home Apache server installation (WAMP5) and not on my webhosting server either. If I attempt to open the index file directly from my hard drive, it loads the script normally and runs the slideshow. If I open the page from either server, it looks like a flash-of-unstyled-content… See for yourself! http://miniagencia.com.br/estudos/slideshow/ — any help appreciated ;)

Oh boy, that did it! But wait, wasn’t that .htaccess supposed to *stay* there?

We’re selecting a slideshow script like this for our website. Right now I’m stick with Slideshow Lite and also testing EasySlider. Since they display different effects it’ll be pretty much a matter of taste for the guys at the office, I’ll post a link here if we end up using Slideshow Lite, I think you’ll like the result.

Hi Fred, many thanks for this script and all your hard work – it really is excellent esp for people new to web development. Have a strange glitch in Fire Fox – have turned off the pagination and the captioning and a strange number “2″ appears in the top right hand corner of the image. Weird Huh – doesn’t occur in Safari either. Yet to test on IE. Any ideas?

I’m really interested in your slideshow lite gallery as most other galleries out there seem to be rather cluttered and over the top; yours is very clean and simple which is great. I want to put the slideshow into a div in my website (that’s currently under construction). However, I’m rather new to all this stuff. I’ve been working through trying to understand CSS and the like. Is there an easy way you can explain how to get your plugin working within a div? Basically, for me, the div (which currently just has a single image in it) has an id tag set in the CSS which positions it correctly. If I have ‘slideshow’ as the id, where do I put all the CSS styles for that new id?

I’m sure this is probably a stupid question… I’m sorry! But any pointers would be really gratefully received!

@Edward: Slideshow Lite needs its own div container, in your case you can simply make a another div that wraps around the slideshow div. Or, you can simply target your div ID in the JavaScript, i.e. $(“#your-div-id”).slideshow();

Hello, working on a site for a non-profit, where I use this slideshow… I love it and works amazing in firefox and safari, my only concern/question, is that it is not displaying correctly in Internet Explorer… here is the link

I’d like to direct this inquiry to Fred Wu or anyone else that might have some input.

This Slideshow Lite looks very good — I haven’t tried using it yet, but it’s close to another style slideshow, or light box, that I like very much. The one I’m referring to is in use on http://www.forbes.com in the upper left corner.

Is this one basically the same as Slideshow Lite? What might I have to do differently or change in Slideshow Lite to get the same effect as the one on the Forbes site?

Very nice slide show! I have a request. Is there a way to add different kinds of transitions other than the standard fade? For instance, one of my customers wants a way to replace the fade transition with one where it appears as if the current photo is being “peeled away” to show the next photo beneath it. A “curl” on the corner of the photo that peels away the top photo diagonally would be perfect.

Great slider! So simple I love it.
One question. I’m trying to add a line break in the caption so I can have a caption title. Line break and the utf line break doesn’t work at all with the alt tag so I changed it to title – works on the hover but not in the caption. Changed to name so it shouldn’t be tied to any standards – same result. Is there a simple way to either add a line break or use another attribute to add a header? I’m terrible with js! OH! also, over time the pix speed up and the titles all come in at once.
